Educate! works to transform education in Africa to teach youth to solve poverty for themselves and their communities.

Educate! provides youth with skills training in leadership, entrepreneurship and workforce readiness along with mentorship to start real businesses at school, with the goal to make this practical, skills-based model part of national education systems.

In 2016, Educate! is working in 100 schools in Rwanda and 12% of secondary schools in Uganda (350 schools) reaching over 120,000 students. Educate!’s model was proven to have massive impact in a randomized controlled trial. Educate! Graduates earned DOUBLE the income of a control group and had a 64% increase in business creation.

Educate!’s vision is to reach one million students annually across 10 countries in Africa by 2024.
